We have listed seven sustainable hotspots where you can shop with a good feeling.

1. Concept store De Verwondering

The name De Verwondering is well-chosen for the concept store in Wyck. You can wonder for hours here. Spanish fans, printed tiles, puzzles, jewellery, vases, furniture... there is little you can't find in this shop. Whether you're looking for unique accessories to brighten up your living room or a gift for your girlfriend, it's all here.

2. The Bisschopsmolen

Time, love and attention are fixed ingredients of the breads and flans from bakery and tastelokaa De Bisschopsmolen. The Limburg spelt grain used has been specially researched at the GrainLabs knowledge centre established by the owners. Here, they work together with many professionals to optimally incorporate grain into our diet. The company breathes sustainability, with local ingredients, fair purchase prices and knowledge sharing. With that in mind, a genuine Limburgian cherry pie, disembossed bread or forest fruit plate tastes even better! Bake your own Limburg flan or treat yourself in the tasting room overlooking the bakery.

Your meals are not complete without an artisanal mustard, jam, chutney, dressing or vinegar from Adriaan the Flavour Maker. The fruit for these delicacies is locally grown and organic and unsprayed as much as possible. The ingredients are made into products in the shop. Chances are your stomach will spontaneously start grumbling at the smell of jam or chutney simmering in a pan. Can't choose between the 'wiemelkesjam', truffle mayonnaise or herb mustard? The friendly owners are happy to let you have a taste. Of course, you can also just take a big shopping bag and stock up big.

5. Bio Market

Buy fresh organic local produce every Thursday afternoon at the Bio Markt. This market has not been voted the tastiest farmers' market in the Netherlands in the past for nothing, as it is a feast for all the senses. The smell of freshly baked bread meets you from afar and after tasting a piece of cheese at the cheese stall, you'd rather buy the whole stall. Get your daily dose of vitamins at the fruit and vegetable stall. Fancy an honest piece of meat or a veggie burger for dinner? At meat stall Blije Big (Happy Pig) you can get organic meat from animals raised in space.
